TABLE OF CONTENTS

Steel is at the core of a green economy, in which economic growth

and environmental responsibility work hand in hand.

The steel industr y believes that sustainable development must meet

the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future

generations to meet their own needs. Within this, a green economy

delivers prosperity for all nations, wealthy and poor alike, while

preserving and enhancing the planets resources.

Steels two key components are iron (one of Earths most abundant

elements) and recycled steel. Once steel is produced it becomes a

permanent resource because it is 100% recyclable and has an innite

life cycle. Innite recyclability without loss of proper ties makes steel

unique and valuable. For example, trade in ferrous scrap has been

steadily increasing over the years, as can be seen on page 26.

worldsteels Steel Statistical Yearbook will have a 10-year span of these

gures, as well as all the other tables in this publication. The yearbook

will be published later in the year.

In 2011, world average steel use per capita was 215 kg. As you will see

on page 17, it has steadily increased over time. Steel touches every

aspect of our lives. No other material has the same unique combination

of strength, formability and versatility. Steel is central to transpor t,

housing, energy, agriculture, water and infrastructure.

The wor ld steel industry is a key driver of the worlds economy,

and this publication, World Steel in Figures, gives the latest update

on the global picture.

I hope you nd the information within these pages of value. If youwould like additional copies of this publication, you can download

Steel is essential for a low-carbon world in transport, construction,housing and power generation. Demand for steel will signicantly

increase in the coming years, to support global development.

The steel industr y is committed to making a positive contribu tion

to the climate change issue. Strong, high-tech steel products play

a crucial role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions in applications

such as advanced high strength steels for cars and specialty electrical

steels for wind turbines.

worldsteel has established four building blocks for its climate change

policy. Each involves actions by the world steel industry and also has

policy implications for governments:

actions to reduce CO2/tonne of steel produced

transfer of best practice and technology

support for breakthrough technology programmes

development of steel products that save energy in transport,

power generation, buildings, machinery and appliances.

The Climate Action programme

worldsteel has an ambitious programme for every steel company in

the world to measure its CO2 emissions/tonne of steel produced ona common basis. Every steel company needs to measure its impact

on the environment so that it can manage improvements. We have put in

place a common methodology, denitions and agreed boundaries which

have become internationally recognised.

Life cycle assessment (LCA)

worldsteel collects life cycle inventory ( LCI) data from steel p lants all

around the world. LCI datasets are available to our members, customers

and to researchers to encourage life cycle thinking in product design

and material selection.

SAFETY AND HEALTH CLIMATE CHANGE

In 2011, the world steel industry produced

1.5 billion tonnes of crude steel.

The safety and health commitment, made by the wor ldsteel Boardin 2006, is accompanied by a set of six principles:

All injuries and work-related illnesses can and must be prevented.

Management is responsible and accountable for safety

and health performance.

Employee engagement and training is essential.

Working safely is a condition of employment.

Excellence in safety and health supports excellent business results.

Safety and health must be integrated into all business management

processes.

worldsteel publishes the Safety and Health Principles Guidance Book,available in 10 languages to help steelmaking companies to adopt and

apply these principles.

The most impor tant work in safety and health is the collaborative effor t

of worldsteel member companies to identify best practices in key risk

areas. Taskforces create guidelines for safe work per formance. Sharing

serious incident investigations and associated key learnings help to avoid

repeat events.

worldsteel repor ts on safety and health trends using annual metrics

submitted by members. This information helps companies to prioritise

implementation of best practices.

The aim is to prevent al l injur ies and il lnesses.

worldsteel has a Safet y and Health Excellence Recognition programme.

This showcases practices that have had a clear impact in improving safety

and health. In 2011, four member companies received recognition for their

initiatives: Gerdau, Metinvest, Tata Steel Europe and Natsteel. The 2012

recognitions will be announced at the annual conference in October.

Nothing is more important than the safety and health

of the people who work in the steel industry.

Steel is a cornerstone and key driver for the worlds economy.

The industr y directly employs more than two mi llion people worldwide,

plus two million contractors and four million people in supportingindustries. Including industries such as construction, transport and

energy, the steel industry is at the source of employment for more than

50 million people.

Steel is at the core of the green economy, in which economic growth

and environmental responsibility work hand in hand.

Steel is the main material used in delivering renewable energy: solar, tidal

and wind. All steel, even that created as long as 150 years ago, can be

recycled today and used in new products and applications. The amount

of energy required to produce a tonne of steel has been reduced by 50%

in the last 30 years.

Steel touches every aspect of our lives. No other material has

the same unique combination of strength, formability and versatility.

Steel surfaces are hygienic and easy to clean. Surgical and safety

equipment and commercial kitchens are all made with steel. Almost

200 billion cans of food are produced each year. Steel cans ensure that

food remains safe and nutritious, and save energy as refrigeration is not

needed. The can itself is 100% recyclable.

Steel is an innovative and progressive industry committed to

the safety and health of its people.

The industr y is committed to the goal of an injur y-free workplace.

Safety metrics show that the lost-time injury frequency rate is decreasing.

Globally, the steel industry spends more than 12 billion a year

on process improvements, new product development and future

breakthrough technology.

Life cycle thinking: new solutions for new times.

Life cycle assessment (LCA) considers production, manufacture, use

phase and end of life recycling and disposal. Life cycle thinking leads to

immediate environmental benet. LCA is easy to implement, cost effective

and produces affordable and benecial solutions for material decision-

making and product design.

Exports in World Steel in Figures include intra-EU trade, trade

between countries of the CIS, and trade between NAFTA countries.

The gures are based on a broad denition of the steel industry and its

products, including ingots, semi-nished products, hot-rolled and cold-

nished products, tubes, wire, and unworked castings and forgings.

The above table comprises the exports of 37 countries, whichrepresents aproximately 92% of total world trade in 2010.
